Mario Jimenez, M.D., Vote For Doctors, Not Attorneys!
Dear Voter, My name is Mario Jimenez Jerez. I practice as a Family physician, and one of my main goals as a doctor is to help my patients live longer, healthier and more enjoyable lives. To accomplish these goals, I believe that it is imperative that we live in a country where our Unalienable Human Rights and freedoms are honored and respected. Freedom to practice your religion is one of the most important of these, and in my case, it was shamelessly violated in the Family Courts of Miami-Dade when I lost shared custody of my two older children for praying with them. Please, see details here: http://www.SayNoToPAS.com, http://www.votefamily.us/the-last-straw/.

Because of this experience, and because I have identified the main reason we have been losing our constitutional rights and freedoms , I have decided to run for the Florida State Senate, and I hope that you vote for me and the coalition I form part of, to protect our unalienable rights and freedoms. I believe that what happened to me is a symptom of a very serious sickness that our society is suffering, the loss of our nation’s soul, which in the state where I reside, Florida, has already caused the loss of 534+ innocent children in 6 years. Please, see my proposed solutions to these terrible crimes, and unite with us to put a stop to the lost of innocent lives, and the widespread corruption in our government.

Proudly saved by Grace, only found in Christ Jesus, I am a Christian man, the oldest of 6 children and father of 4 beautiful children as well. I came to the U.S. in my mid-teens due to my democratic beliefs and roots being destroyed in my native country, Nicaragua. Here, I became a living example of the American Dream, which professes that with hard work and perseverance anyone can succeed. For the glory and grace of God, while attending school and working full-time, I graduated Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering, and later became a bronze medalist and Olympian in the Olympic Trials for Atlanta, 1996; then, inspired by the near-death experience of my earthly father from several heart attacks in his mid-forties, I saved for 12 years, before embarking in my dream of becoming a doctor, something that I accomplished scoring among the best in the nation in my medical exams and my medical residency. Due to my deep belief that it is in giving that we receive, and this is how we let the light of Christ shine, I created a medical study guide which I shared with all the residents in my program, helping us to score among the best Family Medicine programs in the nation (see videos: University of Miami/JMH Family Medicine Graduating Class of 2013; Lifting up the name of Jesus). I am by no means wise or strong, but “God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty” (1 Corinthians 1: 27).
